A new cocktail bar called Furnival’s Well will open at the site of the former Liverpool ONE Bridewell pub in the Ropewalks area next month.

The venue, which is the latest project from the team behind Berry & Rye, will reflect the building’s Victorian heritage in its decor and drinks menu.

Danny Murphy of Berry & Rye tells Your Move: “Furnival’s Well will be a cocktail bar designed to honour the Victorian heritage of the building in which it is housed, namely the Argyle Street Bridewell.

“Our cocktail list uses influences from drinks from around this time, and these will sit alongside stouts, Irish Whiskey, and a formidable gin list. Guests can expect the same ambience and level of service they are used to in Berry & Rye.”

The Bridewell, a Grade II-listed former jail and police station which was once visited by Charles Dickens, served as a pub until April this year when the former occupant decided not to renew their lease.

Furnival’s Well will open as a drinks venue, but Danny has confirmed plans to launched a food offering in mid 2017.

The bar will welcome customers for the first time in early December.
